Broccoli Slaw

Yes, I eat healthier foods as well. This is actually one of my favorite cold food recipies.

BROCCOLI SLAW

Ingredients:

2 pkgs of Broccoli Slaw
1 bunch of diced green Onions
1 cup of Sunflower seeds (the small greenish colored, unshelled ones)
1 cup of toasted slivered Almonds (chopped mixed nuts or dry roasted peanuts can be substituted or included)
2 pkgs of crumbled Chicken Ramon Soup Noodles
1 diced Red Pepper (green pepper can be substituted)

Dressing:
1 cup of Vegetable Oil
1/3 cup Cider Vinegar
1/2 cup Sugar
2 season packets from soup

Warm vinegar a little in the microwave before adding sugar so it will dissolve. Add season packets and oil. Stir.

Add dressing and noodles to salad about a half hour before serving. Be sure to stir the dressing before adding and once or twice while it's being served. I usually mix everything, except the dressing & the noodles, a day ahead. Makes a great dish to take to a picnic.
